The first lyrics of ‘The Circle of Life’
in The Lion King are “Nants ingonyama
bagithi baba.” In English, this translates
to “here comes a lion, father,” and the
following lyrics just repeat “it’s a lion,
oh yes, it’s a lion.” Source
Doesn’t it mean something quite a bit deeper in Zulu, though? I swear there was a post about it a couple of years back.
